    Dear Brandon,
    It is appreciated if you answer my question.
    When we are dealing with categorical variables, are we allowed to report our data as percentage! On the other hand, I wish to know if the relative frequency formula can be written as: (frequent of the observation/n)*100

    Hello Professor, Is there any way to get the slides you use in your videos. It will be quite handy and easy recall while saving a lot of times in making notes. If possible is will be good, if not no problem but at least reply so that I and others having same question will get an answer.
    Be Safe, Stay Healthy.
    Best Regards,
    Your Student

    I'm trying to find out where to start on basic statistics, when I start on descriptive statistics you start by saying "hello, and welcome to the NEXT video on basic statistics" making me think it's not the first one. Is this where I should start, or is there another one before it?? Another question do you have a book that goes with these videos, either your own or someone elses?

      @BrandonFoltz  6 лет назад +1

      Hi Dan! Easiest thing to do is go my playlist page at ruclips.net/user/bcfoltzplaylists and then proceed from there. PL02, 03, etc. The playlists are in order as are the videos within each playlist. Let me know if you need any help finding things. Thanks for watching!
